Nead advice on a good MP3 player

[SilvaShado]

I figured the best place to ask was here where people talk about music.

I'm trying to do some research on a good MP3 player and figured it'd be good to get some personal feedback. So if you have an MP# player and like it, please let me know what you have and why you like it, and if anything, why you don't like it.

Just so you know, I don't want an Ipod. Some of the things I'm looking for are: 2 GB memory, MP3 & WMA compatible, radio, playlist capability, and maybe an expansion slot. I'm also concerned with how easy it is to connect to a computer and download songs. A neck strap included is nice. I prefer either a strong internal battery or use of AAA bateries. I don't care about video or photos or file capability.

Thanks so much!

Thats pretty specific. ;D

I don't know too much about MP3 players, but if you're looking for something nice thats not an Ipod, look up those players by Creative. I think they're called Zen. They're, like, more affordable, more stylish iPods, that are not made by Apple! ;D

Worth a look, but I'm sure someone else can give you more useful info.

Thanks. Will was able to help me with my search and I settled on a Sandisk Sansa c250. It came down to that and one of the Creative Zen ones, but the Zen had too many negative reviews and it didn't have one of the features I really wanted. But now Will is going to get me one for the holidays so I have to wait. But on the other hand, atleast I don't have to buy it. ^_~

Well, hope you have alotza fun with it... when you get it.

I might get an MP3 player one day... but first I need to get a decent amount of music to put on it so that it'll actually be put to use.

Is it nice? You'll have to show me a pic of it when you get it; I'm curious.

Its always fun to have one thats funkeh to look at. ;D

I got lots of music. In fact, I'm trying to put together a CD now for my car and I'm having trouble deciding which songs to put on it. I have too many choices.

I'll post a pic once I get it, or maybe I'll find a link to one on the net. I'm not too concerned with how it looks, just how it works.

I like iPods, but they are quite expensive. Glad you found something.
